The Roadblocks in Navattic & Tourial: Where They Stop Delivering?

Navattic and Tourial are popular choices for interactive product demos, but they aren't without limitations. 

While considering product direction, both tools have their strengths, but if you need a solution that balances ease of use, customization, and in-depth analytics, these gaps are worth considering.

Here's where they fall short:

Where Navattic and Tourial Fall Short

  • Navattic's Customization Gaps, Tourial's Branding Limits – Navattic lacks deep UI control, while Tourial, despite branding options, doesn’t offer full design flexibility.
  • Shallow Analytics: Navattic provides basic engagement data; Tourial offers more but still misses features like heatmaps or session replays.
  • Static Demos That Require Manual Updates – Both tools require manual updates after product changes—no dynamic content syncing.
  • Mobile Devices Compatibility Issues – Navattic struggles on mobile; Tourial users face CMS embedding issues.
  • No Real-Time, In-Product Guidance – Neither platform offers in-product, live overlays for real-time sales support.
  • Reliance on Third-Party Integrations – While CRM-friendly, both lack built-in lead tracking—setup requires third-party tools.
  • Time Investment for Team Enablement – Navattic is simple but takes time to structure demos well; Tourial offers flexibility but needs time to master.
  • Customer Support That's Not Always Proactive – Navattic lacks onboarding depth; Tourial support can be slow despite being helpful.
